ok - has anyone else seen the new Brawny paper towel commercials and noticed how much they look like an advertisement for Gay Porn?
That guys jeans are so tight you can tell his religion...and it looks like he could poke your eye out...oh yes (joeyjoe just reminded me) that frosting dribbled on the counter top...its all TOO homoerotic...

Oh, yes. Online blogger Towleroad introduced me to these (great) borderline-explicit ads. Brawny Man is very hot.

the way they keep eye contact with the camera, and the tone of voice the announcer uses. Still, i wouldn't mind being the casting person for that campaign.

But he's hot in the sense of early 80s porn, no?

Very Jack Wrangler -- The Early Years. There's something about all that flannel and suburban denim (a dad with an SUV on a Saturday a.m., not an urban gay male) that bespeaks a kinder, gentler era. Whatever.

and didja notice how in the commercials these very masculine men are doing very sensitive things? the better to appeal to romantic female demo and of course gay men?

Morosco - oh MY...I wasn't aware of that - now why don't they use that guy in the commercial???

[redhotinnyc2]

Posted: 3/23/05 at 9:35pm

How much do I love the fact that someone else on this board knows who Jack Wrangler is?????????????

Good lord - I haven't heard the name Casey Donovan in a million years - but joeyjoe just reminded me of another of our favorites - Al Parker!!! Woof!

The former Brawny Man looked like 80's porn as well!
